Chapter 324: If You're Going to Do It, Make it a Big Deal!
After Lin Mengyao sent the collaboration invitation to Hu Ge Qian's Weibo email, she also checked out the video released by the operations department.
After all, the Annual Gala wasn't just about inviting Hu Ge Qian; other celebrities had to be invited as well.
These decisions were to be made through fan recommendations.
Currently, many fans had participated in the recommendation process and liked the suggested celebrities, all hoping that their favorite stars would be chosen by the farm.
Whether the farm could actually invite these celebrities or not wasn't their concern; it was merely a matter of feeling involved.
The farm's video not only caused a stir among fans online but also created a buzz in Yu City.
After all, it was rare for a small town like this to have any celebrity visits.
A few years ago, the popular show 'Taste of Delights' had filmed an episode here, but the celebrities who came were not particularly well-known, yet it still attracted a massive crowd of onlookers.
Now, Liyuan Farm was inviting celebrities to their Annual Gala, which was undoubtedly a sensational event.
Moreover, the farm was even letting fans recommend and invite the participating celebrities.
Looking at the celebrities with the most likes, they were all top-tier stars.
Although these were the fans' wishes, given the farm's usual style, they were likely to invite these celebrities.
This was what everyone was eagerly anticipating.
There was a chance to get to know these famous celebrities.
Naturally, the county officials also took notice of the farm's move. County Magistrate Liu initially thought that even if Liyuan Farm wanted to make the Annual Gala a grander affair, they would probably just arrange some impressive performances and perhaps invite some influencers, but he never expected them to directly invite celebrities, and from the looks of it, not just one or two.
If the number of invited celebrities increased, it would be a significant sensation for the entire event.
County Magistrate Liu immediately called the public relations manager, "Are you aware of the farm's Annual Gala plans?"
The manager promptly replied, "Yes, I am."
County Magistrate Liu instructed, "If the farm successfully invites those celebrities, we need to ensure the county's publicity is well-managed, and every aspect is taken care of, so we don't leave a bad impression on them."
He was well aware that most celebrities had their fan bases, and if they encountered any dissatisfaction or unpleasant experiences, a single social media post or Douyin video could potentially undo all the county's promotional efforts.
Although these celebrities would be paid for their appearances and were unlikely to cause such issues, there were always some unique situations to consider.
The county could only try their best to take all these factors into account and not hinder the farm's plans in any way.
County Magistrate Liu further instructed, "Also, have the county gymnasium renovated immediately. Make it as grand and aesthetically pleasing as possible, so we don't become a laughingstock for being a small town."
"Yes, County Magistrate Liu," the PR manager nodded in agreement.
...
As time passed, the video from Liyuan Farm continued to gain traction online for two consecutive days, eventually going viral.
Moreover, the celebrities chosen by the fans were mostly top-tier stars, which meant higher costs.
Even for a single performance, the appearance fee could easily reach several hundred thousand.
For someone like Hu Ge Qian, singing one song could cost over two million, and there was no guarantee they would even accept the invitation.
When Lin Mengyao received the list of celebrities, she felt a bit nervous and went to find Zhang Lin.
"Boss, these are the celebrities chosen by our fans. The recommendations are quite diverse, with about a dozen names. Which ones should we invite?" Lin Mengyao handed a list to Zhang Lin.
He took the list and glanced at it. Aside from Hu Ge Qian, who he had mentioned before, there were also Dili, Guli, Deng Chao, Chen Ting, and many more.
"These fans sure know how to recommend."
Zhang Lin smiled and reviewed the quotes from these individuals. With a grand gesture, he said, "Since it's the farm's first annual gala, we might as well invite them all. Let's have the farm account live-stream the event, leaving a deep impression on everyone."
"Let's also consider the duration. The gala should have an adequate length. If these celebrities aren't enough, we can invite some high-quality influencers to fill the time."
"Of course, we should be selective with the influencers we invite and not just settle for anyone."
The farm's account currently held over twenty billion, and spending this amount was nothing to them. Instead, it would bring joy to the employees and fans, which was a worthwhile endeavor.
"Okay, Boss," Lin Mengyao responded with a delighted expression.
She hadn't expected Zhang to wave his hand and invite all these celebrities. However, she felt a bit embarrassed and said, "Boss Zhang, these celebrities were only recommended by fans. We might not be able to get them all, and I've already sent a message to Hu Ge Qian, but he hasn't replied."
Hearing this, Zhang Lin immediately asked, "How did you send the message?"
Lin Mengyao explained, "It was a standard collaboration invitation."
Zhang Lin shook his head. "Hu Ge Qian prefers to unwind and reflect. He doesn't like taking on commercial performances and prefers traveling and quietly taking photos."
"Try inviting him to the farm for a vacation and introduce him to our projects, especially the mountain spring wellness."
"I believe he can work and vacation at the same time, and he'll be willing to come. Also, promise to arrange additional accommodations and tickets for his family."
Lin Mengyao nodded in agreement.
Although she wasn't sure if the boss's suggestion would work, she decided to give it a try.
If she could convince Hu Ge Qian, inviting other celebrities might become easier.
Back in her office, she reopened Hu Ge Qian's Weibo and sent him a message as the boss had suggested.
Meanwhile, at a filming center, Hu Ge Qian had just finished an interview for a television station.
As he exited, his wife and manager approached him, saying, "Honey, there's an invitation for a gala event. You should take a look."
Hu Ge Qian frowned slightly upon hearing this. "Didn't we agree to take the last two months to rest and go on a vacation with both sets of parents during the holidays?"
Despite the online rumors and conspiracy theories surrounding their marriage, he knew the truth. Only he understood the comfort of being with someone.
So, he was willing to make time for both families, as they rarely had the chance to gather due to his frequent travels.
He had become less concerned with the fame and fortune of the entertainment industry.
His wife immediately spoke up, "This invitation is different. It allows us to vacation and participate in the event simultaneously. Take a look; I think it's great. Don't you trust my judgment?"
Hu Ge Qian nodded, recalling that his hit dramas were all carefully selected by his wife. He trusted her choices in this regard.
"Liyuan Farm," Hu Ge Qian mumbled upon seeing the invitation.
He had seen videos and news about the place online and was surprised they had invited him to their gala.
However, when he read the invitation's content, his eyes lit up with excitement.
It seemed genuinely impressive!
